Clean Before Create

It's about the time we start thinking about putting up the tree. (I know what you're thinking... but we don't celebrate Christmas in October.) So now I'm cleaning the house! Mom never lets the tree in the house unless it has a perfectly clean environment to come into. This is a lesson I am still learning. I would always rather create than clean, and I'm not so bothered by the house not being perfect. Don't get me wrong -- I'm not a pig, but the one thing Mom and I draw swords at is the definition of clean...

Anyways, I'd better get back to it! So our little tree can come :)
